Terri Anne Smay

Terri lived her life with the true belief that positive thinking would result in a positive outcome. When she set her mind to something, she was going to accomplish it and did. She was wildly and wonderfully stubborn in the best way possible. Terri was also hilariously funny. Her happy, goofy personality was infectious. She made everyone she met laugh and feel at ease in her warm presence. She had a smile that could light up the room and an addictive laugh.

Terri enjoyed traveling and having new experiences, like going to the Philippines and skydiving! But her home and the accomplishments she and Jordan made together were what she was most proud of. They worked incredibly hard and built a beautiful life together.

She loved being outside in her yard gardening, floating in her pool, or hosting dinners for family and friends. She also loved running with her sisters, spending time with her best friends on the water and, most especially, being home with her dogs and husband. Terri could always see the simple beauty of life and nature. A gorgeous sunset or a vibrant rainbow would absolutely make her whole day. These are the things that will remind us of her the most. Terri meant everything to those of us left behind and we will miss her beyond description and more than words can possibly express.

This is written in loving memory of her beautiful, positive, shining soul. May she rest forever in peace.

In lieu of flowers to the family, we kindly ask for your donation in Terri's honor to the American Cancer Society. Details on Terri's memorial service will be forthcoming soon.
